    Republicans want to run Nikki Haley in 2024, not trump. They just want to be free of his stench and find a way to stay relevant in this society.

    Impeach him again and he’ll never be able to run again nor get in their way, even if he creates another party that he cannot run in.
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    I think as the fiber of his being is tattered, his businesses crumble and he becomes poorer and irrelevant, he will spiral further into depression and madness.

    hopefully Mitch will still be the Minority Leader after 2022, 6 more GOPer's running for reelection than Democrats...

    *Van Hollen, Chris (D-MD)
    Warnock, Raphael (D-GA)
    *Wyden, Ron (D-OR)


    Republicans – 20

    Boozman, John (R-AR)
    Burr, Richard (R-NC) – has announced will not run again
    Crapo, Mike (R-ID)
    Grassley, Chuck (R-IA) – possible retirement – 87 years old
    Hoeven, John (R-ND)
    Johnson, Ron (R-WI) – several potential challengers, including Outagamie County
    Executive Tom Nelson
    Kennedy, John (R-LA)
    Lankford, James (R-OK)
    Lee, Mike (R-UT)
    Moran, Jerry (R-KS)
    Murkowski, Lisa (R-AK)
    Paul, Rand (R-KY)
    Portman, Rob (R-OH)
    Rubio, Marco (R-FL)
    Scott, Tim (R-SC)
    Shelby, Richard C. (R-AL) – possible retirement – 86 years old
    Thune, John (R-SD)
    Toomey, Patrick J. (R-PA) – has announced will not run again
    Young, Todd (R-IN)


    and.....


    ......His dedication to punishing GOP senators who didn’t sufficiently support him could result in some costly primaries. And if the president’s crusade against “weak” Republicans causes some of his supporters to shun GOP candidates in the general election, it could create takeover opportunities for Democrats that don’t exist under normal partisan conditions.

    Trump’s postelection activity and behavior will also be a factor. His consistent public presence could keep Democrats energized by reminding them about his actions in office (particularly what happened in the final days of his term) and the importance of voting. The results in Georgia should have been a sobering reminder to Republicans that the president doesn’t have magical political powers.
